Just to chime in for a second...
Slack, I don't hate your tank. I agree with you to an extent that some people on here are a bit too conservative with their stocking advice.
However I have to disagree with you about your success. By my count, you've admitted here to having 3 deaths in a couple of weeks. You don't seem to mind because dead fish are easy to replace. I haven't had 3 fish die in one tank for probably 7 or 8 years. This is not "success" in your tank.
And, how exactly do you claim that a porc puffer got sucked up by your skimmer? These are very strong swimmers and your skimmer does not have that much pressure. More than likely the fish died first and THEN got sucked up in the skimmer.
